  2. Bus network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_network

    In a bus network, every station will receive all network traffic, and the traffic generated by each station has equal transmission priority. [3] A bus network forms a single network segment and collision domain. In order for nodes to share the bus, they use a medium access control technology such as carrier-sense multiple access (CSMA) or a bus ...

  3. Token bus network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_bus_network

    Token Bus was standardized by IEEE standard 802.4. It was mainly used for industrial applications. Token Bus was used by General Motors for their Manufacturing Automation Protocol (MAP) standardization effort. [4] This differs from Token Ring networks in that the endpoints of the bus do not meet to form a physical ring.

  4. System bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_bus

    A system bus is a single computer bus that connects the major components of a computer system, combining the functions of a data bus to carry information, an address bus to determine where it should be sent or read from, and a control bus to determine its operation. The technique was developed to reduce costs and improve modularity, and ...

  5. Modbus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modbus

    Modbus or MODBUS is a client/server data communications protocol in the application layer. [1] It was originally designed for use with programmable logic controllers (PLCs), [2] but has become a de facto standard communication protocol for communication between industrial electronic devices in a wide range of buses and networks.

  6. Token passing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_passing

    On a local area network, token passing is a channel access method where a packet called a token is passed between nodes to authorize that node to communicate. [1] [2] [3] In contrast to polling access methods, there is no pre-defined "master" node. [4]

  7. MOST Bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOST_Bus

    It can be used for applications inside or outside the car. The serial MOST bus uses a daisy-chain topology or ring topology and synchronous serial communication to transport audio, video, voice and data signals via plastic optical fiber (POF) (MOST25, MOST150) or electrical conductor (MOST50, MOST150) physical layers.

  8. System Management Bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Management_Bus

    The System Management Bus (SMBus or SMB) is a single-ended simple two-wire bus for the purpose of lightweight communication. Most commonly it is found in chipsets of computer motherboards for communication with the power source for ON/OFF instructions.

  9. Tree network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_network

    A tree topology, or star-bus topology, is a hybrid network topology in which star networks are interconnected via bus networks. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Tree networks are hierarchical, and each node can have an arbitrary number of child nodes.
